Can I select packages with wildcard ?

[fperie]

Hello,

In the maven plugin assertj-assertions-generator-maven-plugin:2.2.0, I will like to select all classes in the "model" subpackages. Of course, I have multiple "model" subpackages in my project.

I didn't make it work, my actually pom.xml configuration is : fr.mycompany.**.model

Did I make some mistakes in configuration ? Or is this functionality with wildcards is unvailable ?

Thanks for your help !

Best Regards, Fabien

it is java regexp based so try something like fr\.mycompany\.*.*\.model.*

Hello Joel,

in fact, your feature doesn't work :-( In my project, the fr.mycompany subdirectory contains many classes with imports on classes provided by JBoss EAP server.

Below, the stacktrace throws by the mojo : A required class was missing while executing org.assertj:assertj-assertions-generator-maven-plugin:2.2.0:generate-assertions: org/jboss/security/RunAsIdentity

I think the filtering of full qualified name classes (based on java regexp) is maybe realised after loading classes with Class.forName() for example ?

For me, there are 2 solutions to solve this problem:

1. be able to put wilcards on the definition of directory (ex: fr.mycompany.**.model)
2. add a silent option in the mojo to not crash if a ClassNotFoundException is raised

I can write and push a pull-request if needed.

What do you think ?

Thanks for your help.

My bad I gave incorrect information, there is no support for regex when specifying packages. When a package is specify, it will be introspected along with its subpackages. You have then additional configuration to include and exclude classes based on regexes. see http://joel-costigliola.github.io/assertj/assertj-assertions-generator-maven-plugin.html#configuration as a reference.

If you believe this is not working, please provide a project sample to reprocude the issue.

Hope it helps!

Hello Joel,

I created a project sample to reproduce the problem described in issue #61. You will find the sources here : https://github.com/fperie/issue_61_assert_assertions_generator_maven_plugin

The problem occured when a class extends an another class which is in a library injected in provided scope. The mojo should not crash.

What do you think ?

Thanks I will look at it after I release assertj-core 3.14.0, likely in a few weeks.

Hello Joel,

other question : when I build the mojo with maven in command line, I have 2 failures. Why ? How can I have an success build with maven in command line ? When I launch the junit tests in Eclipse, all tests are green !
